VARGAS FRANCO, Alfonso. Peer review and academic writing at university: the student's perspective. Folios [online]. 2014, n.39, pp.13-29. ISSN 0123-4870.

In this article we analyse the points of view (representations, awareness, attitudes, opinions) of a group of students from an emic perspective (‘a perspective of the informant, of the student, who is also the author of the text'), regarding academic writing, their roles as author and reader and the processes of peer review, in a sequence of learning of abstracts, reviews and academic articles, in a university classroom. This text is based on an interview carried out as a discussion group, recorded and transcribed following the discourse analysis model. The qualitative-ethnographic study leads to results that the intersection of peers is more complex than it appears, but that it can be beneficial in that the students take charge of the dominant conventions of academic writing, facilitating their integration in a new discursive and cultural community.

Palavras-chave : Peer review; academic writing; representations; levels of conciousness; attitudes; student's perspective.
